A hoot!

A hoot!
 
He / She / It's a hoot !! Does anyone know a good Spanish expression for it? :p

It means something or someone that is hilariously funny or very entertaining.

Informal One that is hilariously funny: "Emmett, that skirt is a hoot!" (Bobbie Ann Mason).

' Used a lot' or 'used (quite) often' are used more frequently (;)) than 'it's very used' (in fact I am wondering if that is used at all. :D)

So I could just say 'qué divertido eres/es' ? :p ¡Gracias! :thumbsup:

¡Qué correcta estás!


No pienso que 'it's very used' es usado mucho, por lo menos nunca lo he oído

Guess you wouldn't knock any 'knockers' either, then... :rolleyes: :D

Weird word in Dutch (though there are several) 'prammen' ..:thinking:
(the singular, 'pram' ,obviously has a rather different yet in a peculiar way related meaning to the English meaning of this word... :D :lol:)

Can't say I like them referred to as such though personally.. :rolleyes: :impatient:
